Description

The evaluation method of S1P1 receptor stimulating agent and screening technique
Technical field
The present invention relates to and evaluate sphingosine-1-phosphate 1 (hereinafter referred to as " the S1P1 ") immunosuppressive activity of receptor stimulating agent and the method for cardiac toxic, and screening has strong immunosuppressive activity and the method for the low S1P1 receptor stimulating agent of cardiac toxic.
Background technology
The result of numerous autoimmune diseases is, due to the immune response of exception, identify the lymphopoiesis of self mistakenly and activate, systemically attack self or attack self and specifically organize and present symptom, but its reason being varied and not clear and definite.Up to now, with suppress lymphocytic propagation, activation medicament for target, various immunodepressant is developed gradually and enters clinical practice, but the spinoff caused by nonspecific cell inhibitory effect activity, cytotoxic effect is quite a few, becomes problem.
In recent years, as the medicament for relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis disease, approved FTY720 (another name FTY-720) is not owing to being by making lymphocyte exhausted because of cell death, but carry out immunity moderation by controlling its location, therefore attracted attention as the medicament with new mechanism.But on the other hand, the serious side effects centered by cardiovascular system comprising the cardiac arrhythmia such as bradycardia, atrioventricular block (AV block) is confirmed for FTY720, thus becomes problem.(non-patent literature 1, non-patent literature 2).
The acceptor of sphingosine-1-phosphate (hereinafter referred to as " S1P ") is the G-protein conjugated receptor (GPCR) be present on cell membrane, identifiedly goes out to have 5 kinds of subtype acceptors (S1P1, S1P2, S1P3, S1P4, S1P5; Another name is endothelial differentiation gene EDG-1, EDG-5, EDG-3, EDG-6, EDG-8).FTY720 (FTY-p) and S1P1 acceptor, S1P3 acceptor, S1P4 acceptor and the S1P5 receptors bind of known phosphorylation in vivo, play function as activator.
Known lymphocyte often consumes the regular hour and cruises in blood circulation and lymphoid tissue, when moving in blood circulation from lymphoid tissue, and the extremely important effect of S1P1 receptor exerts on Lymphocyte Membrane.With FTY-p be representative S1P1 receptor stimulating agent mainly through with the S1P1 receptors bind on lymphocyte, S1P1 acceptor is taken in cell and makes the S1P1 acceptor defect on lymphocyte.Then, thus lymphocyte is isolated in secondary lymphoid tissue and circulating lymphocyte number is declined.Consequently S1P1 receptor stimulating agent plays excellent immunosuppressive activity (non-patent literature 2).On the other hand, from the research of rodent, consideration is by stimulating S1P3 acceptor to show the cardiovascular side effects such as bradycardia (non-patent literature 3,4), therefore, studying the S1P1 receptor stimulating agent of the effect reduced S1P3 acceptor.
In such situation, report as (the another name Xin Bomode of BAF312 S1P1 acceptor and S1P5 acceptor to optionally activator in recent years, Siponimod) clinical test results (non-patent literature 5), wherein as the heart rate reducing effect of spinoff with show under same amount as the circulating lymphocyte number decline effect of validity.Therefore, showing can not isolating cardiac toxicity clinically to the effect of S1P3 acceptor only by being separated, the induced cardiotoxicity showed by FTY720 be stimulate by the activator of S1P1 acceptor the toxicity caused at least partially.
S1P1 acceptor and inhibition gα protein matter (hereinafter referred to as " G α i ") coupling, in heart, by stimulating the activator of acceptor, the G α i of activation makes G-protein coupling type inward rectification type potassium channel (hereinafter referred to as " GIRK passage ") activate together with G β γ.Due in heart, the complex of GIRK1 and GIRK4 is expressed, and therefore considers to produce because this activator stimulates degradation cardiac toxic (non-patent literature 5,6) under AV block, heart rate.
About the agonist activity of the S1P as the endogenous agonist to S1P acceptor, although report different according to evaluation assessment and have some differences, usually show 50% activation concentration (EC50 value) of about about 10nM.On the other hand, although the blood level of the general strong ordinary person of S1P exists with the high concentration of the decades of times of the such EC50 value of hundreds of nM, in general strong ordinary person, cardiac toxic is not brought out.And then, there is following contradiction: although in the same manner as BAF312 with FTY-p showing the EC50 value of same degree effectively blood level be the concentration that tens of nM is low like this, performance cardiac toxic.
Like this, the mechanism of the immunosuppressive activity of S1P receptor stimulating agent performance as its main effect, the cardiac toxic as its spinoff is illustrated at present not yet fully.
